Matteo Giordano (born 23 October 1984) is an Italian footballer who plays as a defender.

Career

Born in Sanremo, Liguria region, Matteo Giordano started his career at Torino Calcio, then A.C. Milan, Lombardy and played on their Primavera Team.

In summer 2003, he was involved a swap deal with F.C. Internazionale Milano, in which Giordano, Ronny Diuk Toma, Simone Brunelli and Matteo Deinite moved to Internazionale, while Salvatore Ferraro, Alessandro Livi, Giuseppe Ticli and Marco Varaldi moved to A.C. Milan. Later, the deal was criticized by the press as making false profit on the balance sheet, as the transfer fees were paid via player exchange, but in the balance sheet, the nominal value could be adjusted by two clubs. The tactic is commonly used to make the transfer fees larger in Italian football.

He then left on loan to Castel di Sangro, A.C. Montichiari and Olbia at Serie C2, and Lugano at Swiss Challenge League.

In June 2007, the co-ownership agreement ended with Inter fully contracted with Giordano, but he was released to join hometown club Sanremese of Serie D.
